What's new

Writing a wish list to any park

SFGAM:
1. Get rid of the Dark Knight Coaster and Superman: Ultimate Flight
2. Build a GCI on the site of both.
3. Always have both sides running on American Eagle.
4. Make the atmosphere nicer.
5. I think that's it.

^I mean, I wouldn't get rid of Gemini. It's iconic, historic, and I actually liked it. Sure, it's nothing amazing but if CP wants to get rid of their crap, they should get rid of Mean Streak. It takes up a ton of space and it's mostly just painful.

I forgot about Mean Streak entirely, haha. That would be a good one to kill.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

I agree with keeping Gemini. <3

Mean Streak has got to go. The question is...what should replace it?
 
^A big, twisty woodie that's good and normal, in the fact that it doesn't pointlessly invert and is actually made of wood.

So a big ass GCI.

If any park gets rid of its B&M Flyer its operating license should be revoked. S:UF is the most popular ride in the park, even if it is a clone, and replacing it with a woodie would kill the park.

If you're going to get rid of anything next to the Dark Knight, move the Famiglia and reroute the train tracks to fit that GCI in. Also, the atmosphere is fine. The themeing is sub-par in most areas (they get away with it with easy-to-theme coaster names) and the arrogant "Cleanest Park in the **** Universe!" blaring announcements are annoying, otherwise there's nothing to change.

I agree that it would have to be a woodie. Actually that would be a good, reasonable investment to make in a couple years as it would be much cheaper than most steel additions (and they just spent a ton on Gatekeeper for next season). GCI or a unique GG coaster would be great in it's place.

If outlaw run is really well received I honestly think Cedar Point may get a "most inversions on a wooden coaster" coaster.

Likely RMC
 
^It is possible that they would go for something over the top like that...wouldn't be surprised. Although I would probably prefer/just be fine with a solid high-speed, airtime woodie with some high banked turns...that would be too lowly for CP though, haha.

S:UF is TERRIBLE. Waited an hour because of maintenance problems (I EVEN HAD A FLASH PASS!!!!) and it gave me a headache afterwards. The ride was only about 30 seconds long without the lift and the only force I felt at all was on the pretzel loop and that HURT.
 
^ You're insane. That pretzel loop is sexy sexy sex from sextown and the rest of the ride ain't bad either.
Or maybe the clone at SF Great Adventure is better for some reason.
 
The pretzel loop is what makes those clones, everything else is pants. I'll be dead honest, I like S:UF for it being a round-up pen. It gets people into the cattle herds and keeps them there :D

Yes, but sadly the pretzel loop is the most hideous element known to man. SFGadv's was plain nasty. The highlight of the ride being the biggest lowlight of my coaster riding career. Eugh.
 
I agree, pretzel loops really are vile, hence why Air is my favourite flyer because it doesn't try to torture me with one <//3
 
I'm not a fan either, but it's interesting, because people either literally love them or hate them.

And it's USUALLY American's who love them. Kyle and Dillon both enjoyed pretzel loops, both me and John were like ewww.
 
Blackpool Pleasure Beach

1) Do something with the Truma Towers building (possibly a sub terra style ride)
2) refurb impossible
3) A NEW COASTER
4) general clean up
5) allow more than one train on each ride more often (looks at PMBO)
6) Get another car for Nickelodeon Streak
7) Improve the Big Dipper, it's just not as good as it was. I feel it's lost a bit of life from that crash a few years ago.

Pretzel loops are amazing, simply put.

Oh yeah Great Adventure's S:UF is just vile all the way around. Queue, operations, ride quality, all horrible. The only reason why I enjoy the pretzel loop is because it's the only thing it does, which doesn't make for a good coaster. If it did more like what other flyers do, especially the newer ones as of late, I probably wouldn't hate it as much.

My dad absolutely hates them though, he likes to see what the coaster is doing the entire way around (so if he blacks out the ride sucks in his mind). He loses complete track of what's happening the second the train takes that horrible dive.

I'd love to ride Air, or at least another flyer that does more than a pretzel loop in a ditch (oh Manta I'm looking at you...). As I said before it's the only thing worth the ride on the S:UF clones, and it just makes them meh instead of gliding garbage with a rollover tossed in at the end.
 
Cedar Point

1. Stop calling yourself the best amusement park in the world.
2. Demolish Corkscrew and replace Corkscrew with an S&S El Loco coaster.
3. Put topper track on Mean Streak.
4. Stop calling Millennium Force the best coaster in the world because even though it won Golden Ticket Award for the Best Steel Coaster dosn't mean in reality people really like it that much.
5. Stop trusting Golden Ticket and start trusting Mitch Hawker.

With GateKeeper and the front gate being redone, there really is nothing else to do with it.
 
Lagoon- 1. Even though you can't afford anything to big, PLEASE stop putting in rides that are just wasting space.

Alton Towers- 1. Just like Smithy said, GET.DAT.FREAKING.WOODEN.ROLLER.COASTER.AFTER.SW7.

Darien Lake- 1. Get something by Intamin, and if you think you can't afford one, buy a smaller Intamin coaster.
2. Put topper track on Predator.

BonBon Land- 1. I could cuss so much right now but i'm not going to.
2. Stop allowing people to operate their own rides.
3. Stop the gross, childish, dumb, themeing.
4. FREAKING CLOSE.

Liseberg- 1. This might be kind of a thing for Mack Rides, but please notice there will be clearance issues with Projekt Helix and Lisebergbanan in 2014.

Cedar Point- 1. In a few years after GateKeeper you need to make a roller coaster that kind of interacts with GateKeeper. Name it KeyMaster. You can't have the gate keeper without the key master!

Six Flags New Orleans- 1. Try to move Mega Zeph to a different park if you can. Six Flags America would be a good place to put it between the area of Apocalypse, Roar, and Superman: Ride Of Steel.
